O Manual de Recomendações apresenta as diretrizes nacionais para o controle da doença, que incluem procedimentos clínicos padronizados, procedimentos laboratoriais, sistema de vigilância, ações de biossegurança e organização de serviços. Apesar de conter as reco...mendações clínicas no que diz respeito à padronização de ações de busca de casos e tratamento, o manual está destinado às ações voltadas para a saúde pública e não pretende ser um guia clínico sobre a doença. Dessa forma, não substitui livros, textos e publicações acadêmicas que identifiquem boas práticas clínicas sobre a abordagem do sintomático respiratório e do paciente com tuberculose nos seus variados aspectos e especificidades.

Tuberculosis "Disease of Many, everyone's fight''

The COVID-19 pandemic arrived in an evolving epidemiological context where some countries are experiencing a progressive decrease in HIV positivity in their testing programme as they are moving closer to the first 95 target. Distinguishing changes in HIV testing services due to the COVID-19 pandemic... from those resulting from evolving HIV testing strategies is crucial for adapting services and helping countries define their strategic mix of testing options moving forward. There is a need to focus, prioritize and plan for strategic efforts to prevent going further off the track toward achieving global targets and goals.
To support these efforts, WHO in partnership with ministries of health conducted an in-depth analysis of HIV testing services and antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation prior to and during reported COVID-19 disruptions. Additional publicly available Global Fund and PEPFAR data was also reviewed and analysed. This analysis, and coordination with ministries of health, identified key service delivery adaptations utilized during COVID-19-related disruptions and formed the basis of this strategic guide.
This document focuses on current country needs, as well as plans for prioritization and potential surge support needs in the event of future disruptions. Although the data and implications are specific to sub-Saharan Africa, key principles and lessons can be applied elsewhere.
